please symlink base#_#.tgz



package: ftp.debian.org

I'd like to see a symlink base.tgz -> base#_#.tgz, in all disks-<arch>/, in
all dists.  This would make it easier to download, without having to know
ahead of time what the numbers will be.

Also, since boot-floppies have been removed from woody(because of Joey's
modular installer), this doesn't affect woody, but only previous
distributions.

For the boot-floppies team: Any future bf scripts, in addition to having a
version number embedded inside a filename, could we have a symlink without the
version number in it?

btw, this little symlink is needed so that I can patch buildd-setup-chroot, so
that it no longer needs a local mirror copy(it does glob, which doesn't work
remotely over http).
